What does Empowered Mean to You?
Here are just some of the ways self-empowerment restores your energy and transforms you into the most Charismatic, Vibrant and Joyous version of you…
Inner Peace
Show More
Through this healing journey, I have realized that I have never felt truly happy or at peace. At 39, for the first time, I am starting to speak my truth and do things that bring me joy.
Kris has taught me mindfulness and self-compassion techniques that help me to deal with stress. I had to learn to let go of guilt and shame, and how to meet my own needs. I've never been so overwhelmingly happy, not just in the world, but inside, I just feel so much better.
Unshakeable Confidence
Show More
As a kid I was bullied a lot, for me that led to a lifelong fear of being noticed. I was avoidant, didn't feel comfortable in my own skin and felt blocked from pursuing my passions.
My work with Kris has been dynamic. She helped me process and shift my perspective around my childhood and then began my journey of self-discovery. My confidence level, self-esteem and self-respect has skyrocketed. I can say now, with confidence, that the challenges I was presented with helped me to grow. I'm even planning to host gatherings around adults taking back their voice after childhood trauma and bullying. I credit my work with Kris that I have built the confidence and courage and pursue this and other passions.
No More Guilt!
Show More
I love being a wife and mom but I was burnt out and secretly unsatisfied with my relationship. When I first booked with Kris I was feeling rejected and resentful, she helped me realize that I had more power than I ever imagined.
Once I saw a different side to the story, I stopped wasting my energy complaining, I started doing things that bring ME joy, my whole world shifted. Now, I have more romance, fun and fulfillment than I did when I was first married.
Realize My Beauty
Show More
I never felt comfortable receiving compliments. If someone said “you look nice”, I would be thinking, “they are just being nice” My therapist recommended working on my self-love. Kris has helped me so much.
Hearing her self-love journey was inspirational and helped me feel understood. Everyday I choose to feel loved and valued and as I have done the inner work to help my self-value grow I feel more and more like a Goddess. I also feel naturally inclined to take care of my physical body too. I never imagined finding joy from joining a gym and trying new healthy food. Kris has been there beside me while I came to understand that true beauty starts from within, and for the first time I truly feel Beautiful.
Respect
Show More
I found it very hard to stand up for myself, and out of wanting to “be a nice person” would often cater to others. I really do like to help but if I was being honest with myself mostly I felt used and angry.
Can I tell you about how many AHA moments I had in my first session with Kris! She helped me to realize that, essentially, I was expecting respect from others but not giving it to myself, and that I was tending to others’ comfort above my own out of fear. She gave me awesome tools to help me set boundaries and stand up for myself. I love feeling empowered and can honestly say that I get the ICK when I think of how I used to function. Now I give myself, and receive from others, the respect I always wanted.
Letting My Light Shine
Show More
My work with Kris focused on letting go of the limiting beliefs from expectations that my family and culture raised me with and learning it was ok to live to my fullest potential.
I realized that I naturally dimmed my light to keep the peace and make others comfortable, however, I eventually became depressed. With kriss’ support and guidance my mindset transformed and I started to nurture my authenticity. She also taught me about masculine and feminine energies, which helped me to understand myself and others more. Not only do I feel more confident, beautiful and worthy, everyday I feel more in touch with my intuition. Working with Kris has brought Magic into my life.
Embracing Kindness, Overcoming Bullying
Show More
To be honest, I have always been a bit of a silent bully. In my head I was critical and would make fun of others. I had a toxic attitude, a behavior adopted from my mother.
I really did think that my sarcasm and mean girl attitude gave me an edge, but in truth it made me bitter and jealous. Kristen helped me realize that true strength is found in compassion, and that my ‘attitude’ was a protective tool. It took practice, but she recommended great books and videos that helped. I literally think I will live longer now that I have found kindness and can recognize good intentions all around me. A friend of mine recently commented that I am like Scrooge on Christmas Day, and I intend to stay this way!

I have been in traditional talk therapy for years, but did not find the drive or stress relief I was looking for. In my first session with Kris I felt a palpable difference in my perception of life and how I had not really been taking accountability for my actions. She helped me to take back the power in my circumstance, and move forward feeling motivated and hopeful. I’ve been making huge strides in my business and feeling less stress at the same time. I definitely recommend her and her services.
“I came in feeling constantly on edge, like my nervous system in cronic survival mode. Hypnotherapy helped me understand where my anxiety was really coming from instead of just trying to manage it. I feel calmer in my body, less reactive, and more present in my life. For the first time in a long time, I feel safe inside myself. Kris has a way of making people feel safe to open up and helped to gently guide me towards the deeper understandings that have brought me inner peace.”

Thank you Kris for the Mindfulness Meditation Practice and Energy Healing. It was not only relaxing but eye opening. I feel like I just had a year of therapy in 2 hours with you. You have an amazing talent and exquisite delivery. And, you are right! I’m only striving for excellence from now on!
“I was first refered to Kris with a glowing recomendation but honestly I was unsure how it might help me ease up my depression. I am on my 5th session and I feel more connected to myself now than I ever had. I am looking at my past in a whole new way. I have had significant trauma in my early years, not only am I writing a new story for myself but I am shifting my entire view of life, and it feels emowering and energizing.

This is a recommendation for the coaching practices of Kristen Giordano. As a licensed therapist, I can say with certainty that Kris is proficient in her craft, professional in nature, and has an outstanding capacity for compassion. She has been a key motivator for my own self-care and boundary setting, something that I often teach but was not sufficient at implementing in my own life. Since seeing her monthly for about half a year I no longer feel on the edge of burn out and notice a general sense of happiness that was clouded for so long.
“This was my first time trying hypnotherapy, I was not sure what to expect. After 3 sessions I am AMAZED! I went from overthinking, feeling triggered by others actions and always needing control. With Kris’ coaching, and meditations I have never felt so relaxed and my anger has seemed to just disapear, i can’t expalin it except it’s like I no longer really even care about the people of things that used to infurate me. im on cloud 9! Thank You Kris! If you are reading this and unsure if hypnotherapy can work for you, definately give it a try, you have nothing but peace to gain with Kris.

My experience with Kristens Reiki was Transcendent. It was yesterday and I still don’t have words to use to describe it. What I can say is that I completely left my body, visited a space where all my pain was gone and I felt nothing but peace. Today that peaceful feeling still infuses my body and I don’t feel like it’s leaving anytime soon. I love how she incorporates different modalities like crystals and aromatherapy. Just making it Next Level! Also, if you are a person who can’t relax easily, like me, she guides you into the session with the most calming meditation. Oh and ADD on the tension release massage, Best Money Ever spent!
“I Can Say “NO” … without guilt!
I will never go back to a life where I’m drained, overwhelmed and resentful. Everyone needs this!
-Cecelia
I attended a Solstice Sunday Retreat. Wow, what an amazing day of rejuvenation. The day was a perfect blend of rest, quiet, and activities. We spent the day being lavished with delicious food and a beautiful ambiance. I found the skills she taught very healing as I am working through some deep trauma and loss. I Highly Recommend and will definitely attend the next one.
I just signed up for Kristens Divine Feminine Healing Package. We had an initial coaching session and it only took 1 hour for me to realize that I have a lot to learn. I love being in Kris’s energy, and I know she will have so much to teach me. I’m already noticing a huge difference in how my (adult) kids, husband and co-workers treat me, just from 1 session talking about boundaries. I know this work is challenging for me but I Need to do it and I can already see how it’s going to change my life for the better!
I recently concluded a 6 session package of hypnotherapy and coaching combined, I can confidently say I am a reformed people pleaser. Remarkably, I have noticed an abundance of synchronicities and mini miracles that I contribute to my over all general improvement in happiness and feeling closer to my authentic self. I highly recommend this type of inner healing. – Lucia
My distance Reiki session with Kris was absolutely amazing!! Her kind, intuitive, heart-centered approach was felt from the pre-session phone call until the wrap up discussion after the Reiki. Her uplifting energy and powerful healing abilities were so strong, it felt as though she was in the room with me, rather than miles away. During our discussion after the Reiki healing, she shared many insights and offered supportive recommendations for me moving forward. I felt very nurtured, relaxed, and balanced after treatment. I will be booking another session very soon!!
Ever since I started working with Kris, she has been an absolute blessing to me. She is one of the kindest people I’ve met, she has a big heart and a warm soul. For me, personally, reiki has been an incredible experience. I have been to chiropractors and acupuncturists but reiki is and has been by far something to be the most helpful. Reiki has helped me personally with emotional healing, reduced stress, anxiety and has increased my energy level. At the end of all my sessions I always feel my mind is put at ease. Kristen Marino is a real miracle worker in the art of reiki. I highly recommend her to anyone and everyone.
After attending the event to ‘Rewire Your Body & Mind For Inner Peace’ I feel like my eyes have been opened and I am taking control back of my happiness. Thank you Kris!”

“Kristen is Inspiring! Her Light touches everyone in the room!”

I began seeing Kristen when my doctor recommended I add in energy healing therapy to ease the side effects brought on by chronic illness. I was feeling quite defeated and entirely sinical but was encouraged to give it a try. I began adding regular Reiki Treatments to my existing therapies and noticed that, at least, the session was relaxing, enjoyable, and I felt re-energized afterwards. After a couple treatments, I noticed diminished symptoms and a decrease in physical pain. The mindset “tips” she gives have made coping with my illness more barrable and less overwhelming. Kris is kind, caring, and gifted. Give it a try, you will be surprised!
What a wonderful alternative form of wellness your Reiki sessions are! Physically, I could feel warmth and gentle tingling in my head, neck, and shoulders that moved into my heart space. As we discussed later, you were spot on that my heart needed focus that session. The immediate effects were so blissful. It was amazing to feel my mind and body truly relax. Wonderful experience, so looking forward to our next session. Soon, Please!
“For anyone on a Self-Love Journey this is where you need to be!
I have never met a hypnotherapist who specializes in all things Self-Love so when I found Kristen Giordano I was excited. I am 56 and for the first time, ever, taking care of me! Kristen is confident, joyous, caring and is a shining example that us women need to start loving ourselves. Join the movement!”

Kristen, thank you so much for the soothing Reiki Healing. The theraputic touch Aesthetic massage swept me away to relaxation paradise. I appreciated your presence and genuine caring nature. With your help I was able to reach a level of stillness in my mind that I feel carried with me for days after. My family likes me better after your Reiki Healings! See you Soon!
This work supported me through one of the most vulnerable periods of my life. After two sessions, I feel lighter, more hopeful, and truly believe I’ve found a therapeutic approach that works.”
